Integrated Linear Blowing / Filling / Capping System

Sincro Bloc is a compact integrated linear system for high speed linear blowing/filling/capping. The system guarantees high quality standard and output up to 10,000 bottles/hour.These systems combines the highest output today in the market with the maximum container quality keeping reduced footprint, simplicity and hygiene.All these features and advantages make Sincro Bloc one of the best solutions both in terms of capex and as a guarantee of general TCO reduction. Brings together all the advantages of a Sincro connection with the versatility of the SFL Linear blower range.

Sipa Patented sincro connection to convert linear discharge of the blower to the feeding starwheel of the rotary filler:

Bottles are discharged from the SFL blower by the linear transfer unit equipped with spindles and controlled by brushless motor (standard machine).

Two similar linear transfer units positioned one in front of the other slide alternatively to pick up one batch of bottles and release them one by one to the 1° filler starwheel without changing the pitch.

Main features:

Great flexibility: it can handle bottles of all shapes.

Body guides are no longer necessary meaning a drastic reduction in change-over downtimes.

Overpressure system: the separation between the dry zone air (blowmolder) and wet zone air (filler) is assured.

The complete range of fillers can be matched with the linear blowmolder: isobaric fillers, gravity fillers and hot fillers, both mechanical level and electronic volumetric versions, including the weight filling solution.

The fillers in the Flextronic range can be configured in Xfill version: this means that the carbonating or mixing unit tank will be used as a buffer tank for the filler, which no longer has the product tank on board.

Innovative and quick-change-over system

Hygiene

Overpressure sterile air cabins with contamination control equipped with HEPA filters.

The transfer module and filler are pre-set for CIP/COP/SIP operations: a guarantee of the highest hygiene standards.

Solutions for the contamination reduction of preforms and caps.

Filling area protected by a Mini-Enclosure (isolator technology) for sensitive product handling.

Depending on the different operating conditions, we have designed different solutions: Capstream It is a gravitational cap feeding system designed to guarantee the highest efficiency of the Sincro Bloc versions, according to the most advanced state-of-the-art.The caps arrive already oriented to the top of the feeder and descent by simple gravity to cap chutes, without compressed air (clean feeding).Twin/single HopperThe Twin Hopper is composed of two cap hoppers and relevant descent channel to the pick and place. In the event of a blockage on the first, the system passes automatically to the second, allowing the operator to remove the blockage without stopping the capping operations until the machine is empty.When using a single type of cap the single hopper with reverse-rotation solution is available. Flat BufferThis is a dynamic buffer, positioned between the hopper and the pick and place, and is composed of an horizontal rotating disk where a sufficient number of oriented caps is hold to guarantee an accumulation that allows the operator to clear the blockage and completely empty the system.

The innovative features of Sipa linear blowers and fillers, combined with the high level of hygiene typical of Sincro Bloc systems, make thissolution perfectly suitable for most products: still or carbonated beverages, cold or hot filled sensitive products with or without pulps, as well as premium products requiring weight filling.
